Learn Avocado

Learn takes you from an empty machine to a device running your code and taking over-the-air updates. Work through the missions in order. Each one builds on the last, and ends with a real result you can see on a device.

Your progress is saved in this browser, so you can come back and pick up where you left off.

New to Avocado OS? Build your first image with Get Started, then start the missions. Tutorials go deeper on how extensions are built and how application code is compiled for your device.
